How can I use a custom locale file?

Wed Mar 16, 2016 1:11 am
I'm attempting to modify my locale at `/usr/share/i18n/locales/en_AU`. Specifically, I'm adding the following line to the `LC_TIME` section.

Code: Select all
first_weekday=2


I then run `sudo locale-gen` and restart. `$ locale -ck LC_TIME` and `$ cal` show the setting has correctly changed. However, KDE Plasma (korganizer) does not. In addition, the GUI to select locale (System Settings > Personalisation > Regional Settings > Formats > Detailed Settings > Time) seems to be missing some locales from `usr/share/i18n/locales/`, for example `en_DK` aka "Denmark - English", and a few custom files I've created (e.g. en_AU_custom). Does Plasma read locale files from somewhere else, or do I need to refresh the cache?

Bump… I'm not sure if this is the right sub-forum for this. Perhaps it belongs in Plasma 5? Please let me know if I erred. Thanks.

EDIT: I waited another 7 days, but there was no answer, so I posted here.
